Von Miller to NFL? Pass rusher to explore his options

COLLEGE STATION — Texas A&M junior Von Miller said Monday he’ll explore his options concerning the NFL after this season — but right now his sole focus is on helping the Aggies win.

“You’ve at least got to take a look at it,” Miller said of checking out where he projects in the NFL draft after this season.

Miller, a mix between defensive end and linebacker, leads the nation in sacks with 13.5, and his speed and athleticism are catching the eyes of pro scouts — probably as a linebacker at the next level.

Miller, who’s 6 foot 3 and 240 pounds, said his focus right now is helping get the 5-3 Aggies to a bowl game, and specifically playing at Colorado this weekend.

“I need to take care of the task at hand,” said Miller, who played as a true freshman at A&M. “I’ll see what everything else is looking like after the season. I’m just knocking out the checklist right now and focusing on Colorado.”
